Monday morning

This will be my 4th day getting on the elliptical for 30 min. Yesterday, I took my Sunset magazine to read and the time went by faster. I had my iPod covering my ears and my magazine covering the display panel. So I'd have to peek every once in a while to see how long I had gone.

The first day I went to the gym, I was very clumsy =P. I dropped my iPod, then later I dropped my keys...the little area to put stuff was just like a shelf, and there was a place to put my water bottle. But the shelf was open on the sides, so my stuff just slid off. So now I'm more sophisticated because I bring a small bag with drawstrings on it so I can hang it from one of the handles. I put my iPod, gym card and keys in there so they won't fall =).

I was a little worried about making it to the gym today because I had planned to be at work from 10am to 8pm (plus the travel time), so I thought I'd either have to make sure to get to the gym by 7:30 or 8 or I'd go afterwards when I'd probably be tired. But, plans changed so I can leisurely go to the gym after 8am.

And I've been making a protein shake every morning for breakfast. It's kinda nice having the mornings free again...since I tend to be more productive in the morning. I wouldn't call myself a morning person, but I'm not a night person either - so what does that make me?! I guess I'm just a person =).

The weather is starting to get nice...approaching the 80's.

I really, really need to clean my room. It's like when weeds start taking over the backyard (I have to tend to the backyard too!). Papers, mail, clothes, files, magazines, shoes...they're all scattered around =S. It's starting to get to me. I'll work on it when I get back from the gym.

Okay, better get going. Anyone see a pattern in my posts lately? =)
